[edit] Welcome!

Hi, Internedko, Welcome to Wikipedia!

Hello, and welcome to the ranks of Wikipedians! My name is BorgQueen, one of very many Wikipedians around here, and let me be the first to welcome you here. Before getting too in-depth, you may want to read about the simplified ruleset. If you need help on how to title new articles check out the naming conventions, and for help on formatting the pages visit the manual of style. If you need help look at Wikipedia:Help and the FAQ , plus if you can't find your answer there, check the Village Pump (for Wikipedia related questions) or the Reference Desk (for general questions)! There's still more help at the Tutorial and Policy Library. Plus, don't forget to visit the Community Portal. And if you have any more questions after that, feel free to post them on my user talk page. And don't worry—you may well have a bunch of questions after that avalanche of info I just threw at you. Yeah, Wikipedia has a bit of a culture and etiquette of its own, but you get used to it!


[edit] Additional tips

Here's some extra tips to help you get around in the 'pedia!

  • If you want to play around with your new Wiki skills the Sandbox is for you.
  • You can sign your name using three tildes (~). If you use four, you can add a datestamp too. Using the four tildes to sign your sig is policy whenever you make comments on a talk page or vote on something.
  • You may want to add yourself to the new user log.
  • You should also consider (if you have not already) creating a user page for yourself, to tell us a bit about you. Don't worry if it's small at first -- most people tend to grow their user pages over a period of time, much like Wikipedia articles. Don't expect everything to happen all at once!
  • If you ever think a page or image should be deleted, please list it at the articles for deletion page. If you think a page should be moved to a different title, please list it at requested moves.
  • If you're still entirely confused, or would like to get a better grasp of your wikipedia skills, and you have an IRC client (or don't mind getting one), check out the Bootcamp. It's not what it sounds like, but it is fun and can help you with your editing skills.
  • If you're bored and want to find something to do, try the Random page button in the sidebar, or check out the Open Task message in the Community Portal.

[edit] Happy Wiki-ing.

[edit] Добре дошъл!

Добре дошъл в Уикипедия! Виждам, че се интересуваш и си доста активен по темата за българските градове, за която наистина са нужни още доста усилия да достигне едно добро ниво. Забелязах също, че се оправяш доста добре с основите и вече си се ориентирал в синтаксиса и форматирането в енциклопедията, но все пак има някои неща, които искам да ти кажа — например слагай нови секции с маркер за мъниче само ако смяташ да напишеш нещо в тях много скоро след това, защото реално няма смисъл заглавия "Economy" и "Culture" да висят празни — ако искаш просто да подканиш другите потребители да запълнят с нещо секциите, то това просто не е удобен начин. В статията за Горна Оряховица добавих маркера в празната секция, защото мислех, че имаш намерение да я напишеш съвсем скоро. Иначе се справяш чудесно и поне според мен приносът ти е наистина от полза! → Тодор Божинов / Todor Bozhinov 16:06, 12 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Горна Оряховица

Здрасти... видях, че нещо си объркал нещата с препратките към статията и със заглавието. В Уикипедия е приета основно една транслитерация на кирилицата, а името Gorna Oryahovica (с "ya" и "c") не попада в нито една от наложилите се такива. Също препратки не се правят като се мести статията (това се върши само ако е наистина наложително), а като се създаде статия с името, на което трябва да е препратката, и се въведе "#REDIRECT [[статия, към която да води]]". Пробвах да върна статията на правилното име (към което сочат и 90% от всички статии, мисля), но понеже името Gorna Oryahovitsa вече е заето от препратка, ще трябва да се обърнеш към администратор, за да оправи кашата. Поздрави, → Тодор Божинов / Todor Bozhinov 19:23, 21 March 2006 (UTC)

Оставих бележка на WP:RM. Оттам мисля, че бързо ще оправят нещата, понеже няма какво да се дискутира толкова. Най-добре и ти потвърди, че става въпрос за грешка на беседата (Talk:Gorna Oryahovica), за да може по-скоро да върнат статията на правилното име. Иначе не се притеснявай, стават грешки, нормално е :) → Тодор Божинов / Todor Bozhinov 19:48, 22 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] WikiProject Bulgaria

Hi. The ethnicity of the two brothers is not disputed by anyone, except the people who misinterpret the term "Slavic Brothers". I agree that Byzantine is synonymous to medieval Greek, but most of the sources refer to them simply as 'Greek', since Byzantine is an artificial term. There's been a wide discussion about this already where sources were provided and a consensus was reached. So please try to keep the article NPOV. Miskin 12:54, 24 May 2006 (UTC)

I never denied that the Greek brothers were important to the Slavic people Nedko, however that doesn't mean that we have to lie about their ethnicity now does it? You assume that they mean nothing to the Greeks, that's not at all true. Much of the history of the Byzantine Empire would have been different if the Greek missionaries hadn't spread Orthodoxy and Letters to the Slavs. They probably the most important figures in the Greek Orthodox Church, which is in fact the primary cultural Greek institution. Furthermore you say that the article contains inacurracies. You're free to make edits in order to improve the article, as long as you provide credible sources. It's not allowed to make unsupported edits in wikipedia. Britannica for example claims that Cyril and Methodius created the Glagolitic and Slavonic alphabet. Whether that's correct or not is none of wikipedia's concerns. Wikipedia's main concern is to reflect the academic consensus, and not to question its validity. Regards.

[edit] link to iranian

Hello, when you want to link to the article about something Iranian, please do not link to Iranian, as that is a disambiguation page (which nothing should be linked to). Instead link to the one of the options found on that page such as Iranian people, or Iran, by writing out [[Iranian people|Iran]] or [[Iran|Iranian]].

[edit] Bagatur etymology

This word is of clear "Turkic" etymology

bagatur is pronounced baatur due to the Turkic soft g the g is not pronounced, the word derives from comes form "bagater "baga" pronounced baa (emphasised a) due to soft G means young/brave/heroic man "er" means soldier/conquerer. The word means "the man who conquers"/Hero, brave person.

It entered Persian at a later date due to the Turkic migrations into Iran. Its also used in Russia "Bogatyr", in Indian language "Bahadur" is used and "Bahaduri" means bravery. All these areas have had a heavy Turkic presence and rule.

The confusion made by linking it to Iranian etymology is hence;

Iranian bhaga, god. Cf. Baghdad, god-given in Iranian.

The early exact Iranian word is 'bege' and not 'baga'. Old Iranian sound system tends to rely on 'a' rather than 'aa'. Consider English terms 'back' and 'water' where the first one is close to Iranian. Anyhow, the word should be devided to two parts: be+ge. An 'r' existed in the ending of the first part. It was ber+ge. And 'ge' is the slighter form and equal to German use of 'ke'. Totally together, the word is 'berge' which means 'great' in old Iranian texts. It was used to describe a great quantity or quality. 'Baga' is just a later distinction from the orignal version 'berge'.


1. The Iranian meaning of Bhaga is "God"- "God Given", this is not what "Bagatur" means, the meanings arn't related.

2. The original Iranian pronounciation of the word was "Berge" which is totally different to "Baga"-"Baa"

There is no evidence of "Bagatur" being used in Iranian languages before the large Turkic migrations and spread of power.

There are references referring to GokTurk leaders as "Bagatur", a Khazar Khan was called Bagatur, its used in all Turkic languages from Siberia to Turkey.

Regards

[edit] Your English skills

Apparently not. My version yields 1,130,000 google hits. Your version yields just six. --Ghirla -трёп- 10:07, 1 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Template:National Awakening in the Balkans

I reverted your change here. As I'm sure you're aware, the name 'Macedonia' is ambiguous, and while both you and I are a able to distinguish between the varying meanings using only the power of our minds, there are other users who are not so fortunate. There is only one group of people who are called ethnic Macedonians, so that should stay. It is unambiguous. - Francis Tyers · 08:54, 4 April 2007 (UTC)
